    Wall / Gordon
    Harden / Mac / Green
    House / Nwaba / Brown
    Tucker / Tate / Martin
    Wood / Cousins / Caboclo

    + Clemons

    Then we have Jones on a 2-way, and Thomas/Mourning on camp deals I believe.

    So, we can’t release Clemons due to the injury? We still got two more cuts?

    Thank goodness. I was terrified Jerian Grant was about to make this team.

    A few years from now we can give someone a 1st rounder or three to reacquire Queen and pay him $41M for 3 years.

    So no Grant, no Clemens. Who's our backup PG?

    Didn’t the league agree to allow 2 more players this year because of covid concerns ?

    He probably has nothing to say about it.

    Probably not. These cuts make no difference to the decision on Green. It's likely between him and Bruno, and I'm guessing the Rockets pick Bruno.

    20 is now 17.

    Brodric Thomas signed a training camp contract, so he might be next.

    ETA:
    Mason Jones signed a two-way contract, so he does not count on the 15 player regular season roster.

    Minus Brodric Thomas and Mason Jones, the Rockets would be down to 15 players.

    Sadly, even though Bruno is two years from being two years away or whatever the joke is.

    Yea believe so.

    "Expanding the active rosters simply gives coaches more options, and this season that is going to matter, especially with a condensed schedule and some players inevitably missing games. Teams can carry up to 17 players (15 regular roster players and two two-way players)."

    might there be a possible trade somewhere somehow that could theoretically affect the roster composition?
